Note tie

A "~" can be used to indicate the note is to be tied
to the note of the same
pitch in the following chord. That following chord need not be in the same
measure, but it must contain a matching note.
(Note: if a chord with several notes is to have all the notes tied
to the following chord,
the "tie" construct
described later may be preferable.)
The ~ may be preceded by the word 'dotted' or 'dashed' if you want
a dotted or dashed tie; otherwise a normal, solid tie is drawn.
The ~ may be followed by the word 'up' or 'down' to specify the
direction for the curve's bulge. If neither is specified, Mup will
determine an appropriate direction, so you only need to give a direction
if you wish to override Mup's choice.
After the aforementioned items (if any),
you may put 'to voice N' to tie to the matching note in
voice N rather than in the current voice.

// slur from c of first chord to e of second chord
1: c<e>; e; f; g;
bar
// slur from c+ of first chord to a& of second chord
// and from c+ of first chord to d&+ of second chord
1: 2cc+<ad+>; a&d&+;
bar

If there is only one note in the following chord, it isn't necessary to
explicitly state it within the angle brackets; "<>" will suffice.

// slur from c to d, and f to g
1: c<>; d; f<>; g;
bar

The < may be preceded by the word 'dotted' or 'dashed' if you want
a dotted or dashed slur, otherwise a normal, solid slur is drawn.
The > may be followed by the word 'up' or 'down' to specify the
direction for the curve's bulge. If neither is specified, Mup will
determine an appropriate direction, so you only need to give a direction
if you wish to override Mup's choice.
After the aforementioned items (if any),
you may put 'to voice N' to slur to the matching note in
voice N rather than in the current voice.

There are four special "slurs" which are really slides to/from an
indefinite note. They are most commonly used on
tablature staffs,
but are allowed on ordinary staffs too.
They are: </n> <\n> <n/> and <n\> for sliding upward into the note,
downward into the note, upward out from the note, and downward out from
the note respectively. These have to be in angle brackets by themselves,
so if you want to have both one of these slides and another slur on the
same note, multiple sets of angle brackets must be used, as in

Note location tag

Finally, a
"location tag"
can be associated with a note. This would
enable you to draw things relative to the note.
A note location tag
is set by using an "=" followed by a name. The name can be either:

a single lower case letter

an underscore followed by one or more
letters, numbers, and underscores in any combination.

The name is arbitrary, and is used as
a tag that can be referred to later. Examples:
